June 28, 20214 yr Hi there There are a few switches that the FO able to work with, but does not know at what state they are, so if you ask him to flip/arm them, it's possible that he will disarm/switch them off if they are armed already. The ones i've found so farm are the spoilers and autothrust. Possible that you guys are aware but reporting just in case. development version. Edited June 28, 20214 yr by hadi

One sees them working in stable version and assume it's still the case with Dev edition. Gerald R https://www.multicrewxp.com

May i ask if there's currently a problem with the co pilot aligning the IRS? Another question i had, what command can i use to tell the FO to press the right arrow key on the FMC? I am trying to create a flow that tells the FO to receive the flight plan from simbrief, then load the correct amount of fuel from simbrief, then he does need to press the right arrow key to go to the payload page so he can also request that. on init page the right arrow key also takes the page to the fuel page where zero fuel weight and block fuel is entered.

Not aware of any issues with IRS control in any variant (Stable or Dev version). latest now handles entire hydraulic panel in Dev version. You can use the following commands for CDU interaction left cdu press right aow left cdu press next page If you want it to be performed on the right side CDU, use right cdu press right arrow right cdu press next page Gerald R https://www.multicrewxp.com

Only saw it after installing this week's update of FlyBywire Dev edition. It's not just IRS knobs which have simply been renamed (causing the Fo to not be able to control them anymore). Even the ELAC, FAC and SEC switches that could be controlled using the ASOBO SDK and didn't even require the Lvar interface have now been switched to using new Lvars. MCE will catchup within 2 days, but have to say, can't understand the point of these cosmetic updates. So, now you have to consider 3 separate planes. One using ASOBO SDK, the others using different Lvars depending on which version the user is on.😟 Edited July 4, 20214 yr by FS++ Gerald R https://www.multicrewxp.com

July 12, 20214 yr I think the FBW Bus is an example of how not to develop a simulation. Hundreds...yes hundreds (as publicised in Asobo's loading header) of devs all working on it! Now anyone out there ever done project management? Unless there is control over productivity input, it becomes the Wild West. "Lets put this in, no lest put that in, no lets put both in...But what if it conflicts"? Who is checking all the additions/alterations? Jaundiced view of mine perhaps? Stability is required before highly advanced add ons like MCE can function properly! I'm glad I don't care for the project, the stress of developing this must be crazy! Roll on QW 787 (if it happens or MJC Dash 8 Q 400..I wish..or even the fabulously expensive PMDG 737...well I'm a Boeing man..) regards to all struggling captains.

Hi there There's one misinterpretation that i see many people make with the fbw project; It should not be compared to companies like pmdg, fslabs, aerosoft etc. One huge difference is the public availability of the development version. In other commercial companies you almost never get access to such a rolling release version because of the problems that comes with it such as possible bugs, compatibility issues and non functioning features. That leads us to this fact that the current version of the fbw mod is 0.6.1 and since its release, there has not been conflicts and issues, if there is, it is minimal. MCE developers have been kind enough to release patches to keep up with the development version; mainly i think because there has been major auto pilot and flight control law improvements since the stable version, +auto land, EFB features and new awesome sounds, so it is enjoyable for users to fly with the development version. FBW contributors are not payed for their work so in theory they work on what they want, when they feel like they have free time to do so this is why this is like an alpha/beta product; IT is just something different from the aircraft releases we used to see. As a frequent user of the fbw dev version mod, I quickly post here as soon as something breaks with MCE and the FBW mod but I do not expect MCE to keep up with it day to day; That thing updates almost every day! I think other users of MCE should not expect the same as well, after all MCE supports a massive range of professional aircraft and it's not the fbw only that they're taking care of. Saying that! As of this moment MCE has full integration with the dev branch! Edited July 12, 20214 yr by hadi
